Nourishing your postpartum body goes deeper than meals, your tissues, joints, and milk all need support too.

Collagen is a quiet hero in this season: it helps rebuild connective tissue, supports skin elasticity, strengthens hair and nails, and contributes to overall recovery after birth.

For breastfeeding mamas, collagen also aids in gentle hormone balance and provides amino acids that nourish both you and your milk.

Small daily rituals, like adding collagen to your routine, help your body restore, replenish, and feel more grounded in this postpartum season 🤍🍼

Sip into softness 🌼

Chamomile is more than just a pretty flower. For postpartum & breastfeeding mamas, it’s a gentle ally in healing, calming, and restoring.
Chamomile has beautiful, scientifically backed benefits for the postpartum journey, especially for breastfeeding mamas:
Calming + Nervine Support: Chamomile helps soothe postpartum anxiety, reduce stress, and promote restful sleep.

Digestive Relief: Its antispasmodic properties can ease postpartum digestion and help with bloating or gas, for both you and through breastmilk, your baby may also feel the gentle digestive support.

Anti-Inflammatory & Healing: Chamomile contains terpenoids (like bisabolol) that help reduce inflammation.

Ni**le + Breast Comfort: There’s evidence it helps relieve sore or cracked ni***es during breastfeeding.

Mood + Sleep: Studies show chamomile can improve postpartum mood and sleep quality.

How we use it at Mother Moon:
We include chamomile in some of our most nurturing blends, including:
🤍Peace Out Mama – Calming Tincture. 🤱 Bless Thy B***s – Lactation Tincture
🍵 Lactation Infusion Tea

Tag a postpartum mama who could use a little calm in her cup 💛

Let’s talk about the postpartum hormone dip, the part no one prepares you for 🤍

In the first days after birth, your hormones shift more quickly than at any other time in your life. This isn’t just “baby blues”, it’s a profound physiological and emotional reset.

As estrogen and progesterone fall, oxytocin rises.

Your intuition sharpens, your brain becomes more adaptable, and your whole body begins learning how to mother 🤱

Some days will feel grounded, others tender or overwhelming, all of it is normal🤍

Warm nourishment, rest, minerals, healthy fats, and supportive herbs help your system find balance again 🫖 ✨

At Mother Moon, we honour this transition with gentle, natural support for your hormones, mood, milk flow, and overall restoration. You don’t have to move through this season alone.
